The ST. PAUL FIKK AND
MAKINKINSURANCE Co. , has
been engaged in the Hail
business for the past seven
teen years. Within that
time it has paid for losses
by Hail over three-fourths
of a million dollars. This
large sum of money has been j
paid to the satisfaction of
the claimants.
The Hail policy issued is
the fairest and most equit
able issued - insurance
ever issuedby any
surance company. It care
fully protects the interest of
j ] the insured and provides a
jj just method for arriving at |
1J the amount of the loss in
case the crop should be in- p
jured by Hail. [
This is the only Stock rj
Fire Insurance Company in
the United States engaged
in the Hail business. It has
ample assets to cover all lia
bilities , and it pays its losses
| promptly and honestly.
p Don't be humbugged by
irresponsible companies and
agents.
